Earlier in the week it was mentioned how Napoli watched a loan with the option to make the deal permanent.
And according to Gianluca Di Marziothe Serie A side is close to finding a deal with Chelsea for the ex-Athletic Bilbao ace.

Napoli are looking for a new goalkeeper after David Ospina left to join Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr on a free transfer.
